BETH JEANS HOUGHTON NEW VIDEO “ATLAS”

Beth Jeans Houghton & The Hooves Of Destiny are set to release “Atlas” as their next single on Mute on April 24TH 2012. The new single comes announced with a video for “Atlas” directed and produced by Beth’s friend Juan Iglesias in Los Angeles, where the singer has spent much of the year. The brilliant, black-and-white video stars actress Brenda King (and a rabbit) in a clip that’s part stop-motion animation, part film noir and part Benny Hill chase sequence. “It’s special to me because of the locations used and the people involved are all friends,” says Beth.

Described by Houghton as being a song “about change,” the hyperactive track tells of two people comparing their globetrotting stories: “Dissecting the atlas for places we’ve been/Your list is longer but you’ve got more years on me,” it says.
